Runescape : Runescape 3 Celebrating a Big First Month

Posted Sep 06, 2013 by Suzie Ford

Jagex has released some new statistics in honor of Runescape 3's first month of service. During the past thirty days, over 300,000 new players have joined the game alongside over 100,000 returning players reactivating accounts.

“With the Battle of Lumbridge we were looking to give the players a new way to interact with RuneScape and place their mark on the world.” commented Phil Mansell, RuneScape Executive Producer, “We’ve seen over a 150 million votes cast on how the battle campaign should be fought, with players making decision on everything from what kind of reinforcements they get to how they can support their chosen god with buffs and new units. Players have so many ways to affect the current battle, from killing enemies or donating resources to their chosen deity, and it is this player driven dynamic which puts the future of the game very firmly in the players’ hands.“
